Taxonomy

Description
The genome size is 4.1 Mbp, G+C percentage is 43.49%, with 98.73% completeness and 0.63% contamination. It includes a single plasmid of 22,629 bp. The isolate was assigned to the species Blautia obeum (98.98%) based on 16S rRNA gene analysis. However, ANI comparison to B. obeum clearly identified this isolate as being a separate species (84.16%). This was confirmed by GTDB-Tk classification as ‘Blautia_A sp000436615’, recommending the creation of a novel species. Functional analysis showed the strain has 155 transporters, 18 secretion genes, and predicted utilization of sucrose and starch, along with production of L-glutamate, folate, propionate, and cobalamin. In total, 177 CAZymes were identified. The strain CLA-AA-H95 (phylum Bacillota, family Lachnospiraceae) was isolated from human faeces.
